Broad relationship intelligence with strong free-plan value and practical team features.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Connect The Dots is relationship intelligence software for individuals and teams that need a clearer view of contacts, interactions, and shared connections. It supports sales, recruiting, partnerships, venture capital, private equity, and company-wide relationship work. The product organizes and deduplicates contacts, scores relationship strength, maps warm paths, tracks interaction timelines, and supports introduction requests and ghost emails. It is available on the web, iOS, Android, through CRM integrations, and via API and MCP.
Pricing is structured around a useful free entry point and two paid tiers. Free includes unlimited data sources such as email and LinkedIn, 10 AI contact searches per month, up to 5 ghost emails per month, up to 2 lists, up to 5 relationship summaries per month, and job-change tracking for direct connections. Professional costs $20 per user per month when billed monthly and adds unlimited AI contact searches, faster contact-data refreshes, unlimited ghost emails, lists, and summaries, plus basic API and MCP functionality. Business adds a company-wide relationship network, AI search across the company network, CRM integration, SSO, unlimited external members, and full API and MCP access.
Its ecosystem is a major part of the product’s appeal. Connect The Dots works with Gmail, Outlook, LinkedIn, Salesforce, HubSpot, Claude, MCP, and REST API, giving teams several ways to connect relationship data with existing workflows. Shared networks and visibility controls support broader team access, while CRM enrichment and synchronization extend the product beyond contact organization. The main trade-off is tiering: meaningful usage limits apply on Free, while company-wide collaboration, SSO, CRM integration, and full developer access sit in Business. Choose it for broad relationship intelligence across people, companies, and teams; consider another option if you need a narrowly focused contact tool without tier-based usage limits.
